Indian Political Discussion

Watching the visit of the King of Jordan. Eating my porridge.

Cringing inwardly in expectation of the inevitable huggy moment.

Thankfully none on view. The porridge stays down.

#ThankyouModi.

Cheers, Doc

For Secular Forces, Shiv Sena will become Like Minded Party by upcoming General & Local Maharashtra Elections in 2019:


Marta Kya Na Karta - Shiv Sena!(n)
 
The Shiv Sena was never on board with the slimy politics of the BJP.

Very happy to see them taking the stand that insiders knew was coming for a long time now. (y)

Cheers, Doc

Split in Bihar Congress: Four MLCs quit party, will join JD(U)


PATNA: Four out of the six Congress MLCs in Bihar quit the party on Wednesday and announced their decision to join the Nitish Kumar-led JD(U).
The Congress has six MLCs in the state. Four of them — Ashok Choudhary, Dilip Kumar Choudhary, Ram Chandra Bharti and Tanvir Akhtar — called on the Bihar Legislative Council’s deputy chairman Md Haroon Rashid and gave him in writing that they want to be recognised as a separate group in the upper house of the state legislature. Rashid reportedly accepted their request.

Two other MLCs of the Congress – Madan Mohan Jha and Rajesh Ram — still remain with the party.

Ashok Choudhary and his three companion MLCs, later in the evening, gathered at the residence of Ashok Choudhary and made a formal announcement about their plan to join the ruling JD(U) headed by chief minister Nitish Kumar.

INC Bihar was always a divided house. Most of the INC Mla's were Nitish's Party's member. This was on cards since Nitish returned to NDA's fold. Dirty Trick?

Dirty tricks as in trying to split the opposition , arrests on less than substantial charges , selective leaks in the media ,etc. The usual games parties play when bereft of substantial achievements pioneered by Ms IG and dutifully followed by her successors whether from her party or otherwise.

After Harris Mohammed, here is another CONgress leader showing the CONgress model of development.

Local politician assaults police inspector's husband

Congress Goon Farhan Ahmed, president of the Congress minorities city unit at Bengaluru assaults Dr. Vinod, a Radiologist working in the govt. District hospital (i.e. a Govt. Official). Damn guy is even married to a lady police inspector. That made little difference to the CONgress man.

BJP Ally TDP Says It Will Disrupt Parliament In The Budget Session Over Promises Made To Andhra Pradesh; Full Details Here
PTI | 02-03-2018 07:52 pm

Hack:
  • The TDP will escalate its demand for special category status, it has said
  • Following a meeting in AP's capital Amaravati, the party has warned its coalition partner BJP to expect disruptions in Parliament
  • The Budget session of the Parliament resumes on March 5
The Telugu Desam Party on Friday said it will "step-by-step escalate" its fight inside Parliament till the Centre addresses Andhra Pradesh's concerns related to the implementation of the promises made in the AP Reorganisation Act, 2014.

The Budget session of the Parliament resumes on March 5.​
Party leaders said it will also launch a legal battle against the Centre in the Supreme Court to get the provisions of the Reorganisation Act, and assurances given by the then Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in the Rajya Sabha, fully implemented.​
​
"We will not reveal right now what we will do but we will escalate our fight step-by-step till our concerns related to 19 items, including according special category status (SCS) to the state, are specifically addressed."

"As a first step we will write a letter to all parties in Parliament explaining why we have taken the agitation mode and will seek their support to get the promises made in the Reorganisation Act fulfilled," TDP MPs Thota Narasimham, Jayadev Galla and K Rammohan Naidu said.

The MPs were briefing the media after a four-hour long meeting with TDP supremo and Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu in Amaravati on Friday afternoon.

The MPs said they have raised the demand for SCS afresh because the Centre had failed to implement the special assistance measures it announced in September 2016 in lieu of granting special status.

"There are 19 issues in all, including the SCS. We want all of them fully implemented. We will see if certain amendments favourable to AP are tabled in Parliament when the Budget session resumes. Otherwise, we will oppose the Finance Bill 2018-19," the TDP MPs asserted.​
​
The party would also take up a legal battle against the Centre in Supreme Court to get the promises made in the Act honoured, they added. "We will use all options," the MPs said.

"The Telugu Desam Parliamentary Party will write letters to the presidents of all political parties as well as floor leaders in Parliament explaining why, despite being a partner in the coalition government, the TDP has chosen to disrupt Parliament," the TDP lawmakers said.​
​
"We will remind them of the promises made in the Reorganisation Act as well as the assurances given by the then Prime Minister in February 2014. This has already become a national issue and we will seek the support of all parties in our fight for justice for AP," they added.

They, however, remained evasive when asked if the TDP would move a no-confidence motion against the Narendra Modi government.

Asked about the meeting TDP MP Rammohan Naidu and AP Planning Board vice-chairman C Kutumba Rao had with BJP chief Amit Shah in New Delhi on Thursday, the MPs said Shah "just took a briefing" on the contentious issues.

"There has been no response from him," the MPs pointed out.

Replying to another question, they said Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had asked the state to come up with a formula to bridge the revenue deficit, an issue that has been a key point of dispute between AP and the Centre in the ongoing tussle.

While the state pegged the revenue deficit for the year 2014-15 at Rs 16,078 crore, the Centre cut it down to just over Rs 4,000 crore.

"There is no point in asking us to come up with a formula. We will ask for everything," MP Jayadev observed, referring to the huge variation in the amount quoted by the Centre and the state.​
